In my testing, I was able to provoke an odd block pull failure:
$ virsh blockpull dom vda --bandwidth 10000
error: Requested operation is not valid: No active operation on device: drive-virtio-disk0
merely by using gdb to artifically wait to do the block job set speed
until after the pull had already finished. But in reality, that should
be a success, since the pull finished before we had a chance to set
speed. Furthermore, using a double job lock is not only annoying, but
a bug in itself - if you do parallel virDomainBlockRebase, and hit
the race window just right, the first call grabs the VM job to start
a fast block job, then the second call grabs the VM job to start
a long-running job with unspecified speed, then the first call finally
regrabs the VM job and sets the speed, which ends up running the
second job under the speed from the first call. By consolidating
things into a single job, we avoid opening that race, as well as reduce
the time between starting the job and changing the speed, for less
likelihood of the speed change happening after block job completion
in the first place.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor.h (BLOCK_JOB_CMD): Add new mode.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainBlockRebase): Move secondary
job call...
(qemuDomainBlockJobImpl): ...here, for fewer locks.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c (qemuMonitorJSONBlockJob): Change
return value on new internal mode.
Without the VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_JOB_ABORT_ASYNC flag, libvirt will internally
poll using qemu's "query-block-jobs" API and will not return until the
operation has been completed. API users are advised that this operation
is unbounded and further interaction with the domain during this period
may block. Future patches may refactor things to allow other queries in
parallel with this polling. For older qemu, we synthesize the cancellation
event, since qemu won't generate it.
The choice of polling duration copies from the code in qemu_migration.c.

Probably in the noise, but this will let us scale more efficiently
as we learn to recognize even more qemu events.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c (eventHandlers): Sort.
(qemuMonitorEventCompare): New helper function.
(qemuMonitorJSONIOProcessEvent): Optimize event lookup.
Block job cancellation can take a while. Now that upstream qemu 1.1
has asynchronous block cancellation, we want to expose that to the user.
Therefore, the following updates are made to the virDomainBlockJob API:
A new block job event type VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_JOB_CANCELED is managed by
libvirt. Regardless of the flags used with virDomainBlockJobAbort, this
event will be raised: 1. when using synchronous block_job_cancel (the
event will be synthesized by libvirt), and 2. whenever it is received
from qemu (via asynchronous block-job-cancel). Note that the event
may be detected by libvirt even before the virDomainBlockJobAbort
completes (always true when it is synthesized, but also possible if
cancellation was fast).
A new extension flag VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_JOB_ABORT_ASYNC is added to the
virDomainBlockJobAbort API. When enabled, this function will allow
(but not require) asynchronous operation (ie, it returns as soon as
possible, which might be before the job has actually been canceled).
When the API is used in this mode, it is the responsibility of the
caller to wait for a VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_JOB_CANCELED event or poll via
the virDomainGetBlockJobInfo API to check the cancellation status.
This patch also exposes the new flag through virsh, and makes virsh
slightly easier to use (--async implies --abort, and lack of any options
implies --info), although it leaves the qemu implementation for later
patches.

RHEL 6.2 was released with an early version of block jobs, which only
worked on the qed file format, where the commands were spelled with
underscore (contrary to QMP style), and where 'block_job_cancel' was
synchronous and did not trigger an event.
The upcoming qemu 1.1 release has fixed these short-comings [1][2]:
the commands now work on multiple file types, are spelled with dash,
and 'block-job-cancel' is asynchronous and emits an event upon conclusion.

This patch recognizes the new spellings, and fixes virDomainBlockRebase
to give a graceful error when talking to a too-old qemu on a partial
rebase attempt. Fixes for the new semantics will come later. This
patch also removes a bogus ATTRIBUTE_NONNULL mistakenly added in
commit 10ec36e2.

The new safe console handling introduced a possibility to deadlock the
qemu driver when a new console connection forcibly disconnects a
previous console stream that belongs to an already closed connection.
The virStreamFree function calls subsequently a the virReleaseConnect
function that tries to lock the driver while discarding the connection,
but the driver was already locked in qemuDomainOpenConsole.

* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: qemuDomainOpenConsole()
-- unlock the qemu driver right after acquiring the domain
object
In case an API fails with "cannot acquire state change lock", searching
for the API that possibly forgot to end its job is not always easy.
Let's keep track of the job owner and print it out for easier
identification.
As reported by Daniel Berrangé, we have a huge performance regression
for virDomainGetInfo() due to the change which makes virDomainEndJob()
save the XML status file every time it is called. Previous to that
change, 2000 calls to virDomainGetInfo() took ~2.5 seconds. After that
change, 2000 calls to virDomainGetInfo() take 2 *minutes* 45 secs.
We made the change to be able to recover from libvirtd restart in the
middle of a job. However, only destroy and async jobs are taken care of.
Thus it makes more sense to only save domain state XML when these jobs
are started/stopped.
I noticed these compiler warnings when building for the s390 architecture.

This patch cleans up variables used to store boolean command flags that
are inquired by vshCommandOptBool to use the bool data type instead of
an integer.
Additionally this patch cleans up flag variables that are inferred from
existing flags.
The documentation for the flag doesn't clearly state that the flag only
enhances the output and the user needs to specify other flags to list
inactive domains, that are enhanced by this flag.

Leak introduced in commit 0436d32. If we allocate an actions array,
but fail early enough to never consume it with the qemu monitor
transaction call, we leaked memory.
But our semantics of making the transaction command free the caller's
memory is awkward; avoiding the memory leak requires making every
intermediate function in the call chain check for error. It is much
easier to fix things so that the function that allocates also frees,
while the call chain leaves the caller's data intact. To do that,
I had to hack our JSON data structure to make it easy to protect a
portion of an arbitrary JSON tree from being freed.
* src/util/json.h (virJSONType): Name the enum.
(_virJSONValue): New field.
* src/util/json.c (virJSONValueFree): Use it to protect a portion
of an array.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c (qemuMonitorJSONTransaction): Avoid
freeing caller's data.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainSnapshotCreateDiskActive):
Free actions array on failure.
We can tell qemuDomainSnapshotFSThaw if we want it to report errors or
not. However, if we don't want to and an error has been already set by
previous qemuReportError() we must keep copy of that error not just a
pointer to it. Otherwise, it get overwritten if FSThaw reports an error.
When building on Fedora 17 (which uses gcc 4.7.0) with -O0 in CFLAGS,
three of the tests failed to compile.
cputest.c and qemuxml2argvtest.c had non-static structs defined
inside the macro that was being repeatedly invoked. Due to some so-far
unidentified change in gcc, the stack space used by variables defined
inside { } is not recovered/re-used when the block ends, so all these
structs have become additive (this is the same problem worked around
in commit cf57d345b). Fortunately, these two files could be fixed with
a single line addition of "static" to the struct definition in the
macro.
virnettlscontexttest.c was a bit different, though. The problem structs
in the do/while loop of macros had non-constant initializers, so it
took a bit more work and piecemeal initialization instead of member
initialization to get things to be happy.
In an ideal world, none of these changes should be necessary, but not
knowing how long it will be until the gcc regressions are fixed, and
since the code is just as correct after this patch as before, it makes
sense to fix libvirt's build for -O0 while also reporting the gcc
problem.
This bug resolves https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=810100
rpm builds for i686 were failing with a segfault in
networkxml2argvtest. Running under valgrind showed that a region of
memory was being referenced after it had been freed (as the result of
realloc - see the valgrind report in the BZ).
The problem (in replaceTokens() - added in commit 22ec60, meaning this
bug was in 0.9.10 and 0.9.11) was that the pointers token_start and
token_end were being computed based on the value of *buf, then *buf
was being realloc'ed (potentially moving it), then token_start and
token_end were used without recomputing them to account for movement
of *buf.
The solution is to change the code so that token_start and token_end
are offsets into *buf rather than pointers. This way there is only a
single pointer to the buffer, and nothing needs readjusting after a
realloc. (You may note that some uses of token_start/token_end didn't
need to be changed to add in "*buf +" - that's because there ended up
being a +*buf and -*buf which canceled each other out).
DV gets the credit for finding this bug and pointing out the valgrind
report.
Detected by valgrind. Leaks are introduced in commit b22eaa7.

Every now & then, with parallel builds, we get a failure to
validate hvsupport.html.in. I eventually noticed that this
is because we get 2 instances of the generator running at
once.
We already list hvsupport.html.in in BUILT_SOURCES but this
was not working. It turns out the flaw is that we were
adding deps to the 'all:' target instead of the 'all-am:'
target. BUILT_SOURCES is a dep of 'all', so any custom
targets written in Makefile.am must use 'all-am:' so that
they don't get run until BUILT_SOURCES are completely
generated

If the daemon is restarted it will lose list of active
USB devices assigned to active domains. Therefore we need
to rebuild this list on qemuProcessReconnect().
To prevent assigning one USB device to two domains,
we keep a list of assigned USB devices. On domain
startup - qemuProcessStart() - we insert devices
used by domain into the list but remove them only
on detach-device. Devices are, however, released
on qemuProcessStop() as well.
Introduce a set sub-RPMs, one per hypervisor, which can be used
as dependency targets by applications wishing to pull in the
full stack of packages required for a specific hypervisor. This
avoids the application needing to know what the hypervisor specific
package set is.
ie, applications should not need to know that using the libvirt
Xen hypervisor requires the 'xen' RPM - libvirt should take care
of that knowledge. All the application wants is 'libvirt-daemon-xen'
There are 5 sub-RPMs:
libvirt-daemon-qemu - non-native TCG based emulators
libvirt-daemon-kvm - native KVM hypervisor
libvirt-daemon-uml - User Mode linux
libvirt-daemon-xen - Xen, either via XenD or libxl
libvirt-daemon-lxc - Linux native containers
When driver modules get turned on, these sub-RPMs will also
gain dependencies on the appropriate driver module .so files
Take the libvirt RPM and split it into three pieces
- libvirt-daemon - libvirtd & other mandatory bits for its operation
- libvirt-daemon-config-network - the virbr0 config definition
- libvirt-daemon-config-nwfilter - the firewall config rules
For backwards compatibility with existing installs / application RPM
deps, the 'libvirt' RPM is retained, but will have a dependency on
the 3 new RPMs.
Currently documentation is split between the libvirt RPM and the
libvirt-devel RPM. In the client-only build there is no libvirt
RPM, so the docs need to live elsewhere. The obvious answer is a
dedicated libvirt-docs RPM. For back-compatibility make the
libvirt-devel RPM require the libvirt-docs RPM
